Hi,

I recently updated my iPad mini to ios 9 and on balance I am pleased. However, I read a lot on the iPad and frequently select words and look up their definitions. Ios 9 changed the font size in the definition window to one so small that I have great difficulty reading with my tired old eyes (I will be eighty at my next birthday). Why doesn't that window follow the font size specification in Settings? Is there a way I can coerce a larger font size? I am saddened because this was a wrong headed conscious change from ios8 and not a design oversight.

I have often known and worked with programmers possessing great vision but have no sensitivity or sympathy for geriatric users and make decisions like this.

I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks in Advance,
Don
